At the start of the Oakland series, the Yankees hold a four-game lead in the AL East, a crucial position as playoff races heat up.
Gerrit Cole's performance has been exceptional since August, featuring multiple outings without earned runs and a strong reliance on his four-seamer and knuckle-curve.
Facing Cole tonight is rookie J.T. Ginn, who has been hit hard by opposing batters early in his career, raising concerns about his sinker.
The Yankees need to capitalize on this series against the Athletics to secure their division lead, particularly with Oakland showing improved performance recently.
